But upon sinking the 10 ball, Centeno, a native of Zamboanga City, screamed in jubilation. &quot;This is my dream, to be champion,&quot; said the teary-eyed Pinay. With the victory, Centeno will be bringing home the $50,000 (P2.8 million) top prize, which is the biggest in the history of the women’s event.Centeno also exacted revenge against Yu, who eliminated the former&#x27;s mentor, two-time 10-ball champion Rubilen Amit, in the quarterfinals, 9-3.It was Amit who handed her the Philippine flag, which Centeno draped on her shoulders after the title win.Prior to beating Yu, Centeno stunned British legend Allison Fisher on Saturday with a 9-8 hill-hill victory in the semis.Yu, on the other hand, reached the final round by booting out England&#x27;s Kelly Fisher, 9-2, in the other semifinal pairing.
